Today's Maxima announcement kicks off an expected record-breaking number of world and North American debuts at the New York show. Last year's show featured 63 vehicle launches from the world's automakers.
The next-generation Maxima sports sedan made a cameo appearance at the end of its "With Dad" Super Bowl XLIX commercial on Sunday.
Styling features include many of Nissan's new aerodynamic design elements, including the V-motion front end and unique "floating" roof, that first appeared on the 2015 Murano crossover, also a world debut at last year's New York show.
The show runs from April 3 - 12.
